This is one of the points to be treated of by the Commissioners of the two Powers, and which, therefore, are not to precede the negociations, as the Journal des Debate says. " It is not true that the most animated and serious altercations retarded the answer of Turkey. " It is not true that the Augsburgh Gazette speaks of negocia tors appointed to treat with the Servian Deputies. " What is not doubtful is, that in spite of the serious and numerous difficulties with which the Journal des Debats pre tends to surrownt the negociatious, their issue will be pacific. The plan of the Turks is to avoid, at all events, a war with the Russians, and the wish of Europe is for peace... What it desires for the Greeks, it expects from the agreement of the great Powers who may in union stop the effitsion of Christian blood in that un happy country." The Austrian Observer received to-day, with all the particu lars, the news we published yesterday, respecting the communi cation by the Reis Effendi of a written answer to M. Minziacky. This despatch was delivered on the 14th of May to the Russian Minister, who sent it immediately by a courier to his Court. On the other hand, letters from Bucharest state, that 400 Beschlis left that town on the 19th February, with their Com mander, Ibrahim Aga. to proceed to Silistria ; their Com mander is then to go to Constantinople. The rest of their troops divided, to prevent all disorder, into four corps each, commanded by a trust-worthy officer, has set out for Widdin, Nickopel, Rudschuk, and •Totrokai. The Hospodar has already named in the districts 240 Beschilis, to whom he has given his ancient Tar tar for Baschbeschli Aga. (From the Courier Francais.) A report is spread this evening, that the Court of Peers had concluded, in its bitting to-day, the operation of the first vote. The ballot, it is said gave a majority of 17 to 18 ♦otes for a more ample inquiry; there will be two more ballots, the first of which began at the end of the sitting, and it is not thought the de cision can be made before Saturday. _ _ To-day the Duke de Broglie made an admirable speech, and threw, it is said, great light on the cause. The speeches of Prince Talleyrand and of the Dukes de Choiseul and Fitz-James were likewise very remarkable. It is agreed that in this cause many Peers supported their opinion with infinite ability. There is every reason to believe that the Chamber of Peers will show itself in this affair as the firm supporter of the dignity of the Stott, of the interest of the people, and of the public morals. et (From the Journal des Debate.) PARIS, JUNE 9.—The most serious discussions retarded the delivery of the written answer to the Russian ultimatum, at Con stantinople. The object of these discussions was the restitution of the fortresses in Asia. The Divan insisted on this, and claimed that this restitution ought to be the first object of negotiation.— But on the 14th or 15th of May the Austrian Internuncio, who saw the fatal term approaching, obtained by dint of repeated exer tions, the Reis Effendi to send a note to M. Minziacky, confirm * in writing his verbal communication of May bth, and in which tlitiTurkish Minister, without implicating the name of the,Sultan or that of the Divan, avoided -all mention for the present, of the Turkish claims. lt was promised that the Turkish Colinnis .oioners should. set out immediately, and that the Turks would treat with the Servians. A courier from M. Minziacky had carried the answer and the promises to St. Petersburgh. MEETING OF SURREY FREEHOLDERS Last night, at seven o'clock, in pursuance of advertisement, a numerous Meeting of the friends of Joseph Denison, Esq. took place at the Horns Tavern, Kennington, for the purpose of adopting measures for securing his re-election as one of the Repre sentatives of the County. The Meeting was called in consequence of Charles Nicholas Pannier, Esq., of Norbiton-place, Kingston on-Thames, having unexpectedly announced his intention of be coming a candidate for the representation of the County. In deed, so sudden and unexpected was the announcement, that the whole County was thrown into a state of extraordinary excite ment; and the late Members, Mr. Sumner and Mr. Denison, who thought to have walked quietly over the course, were put upon their mettle ; and the utmost activity now prevails in every part of the County, to prepare for a contest which is expected to be carried on with a spirit of unexampled hostility. Mr. Sumner is evidently very unpopular, and there is some talk of nominating another Whig Candidate besides Mr. Denison. Mr. CatvenT and several other Gentlemen addressed the Meeting on behalf of Mr. Denison, whom they described as a noble-minded straight-forward man; and his public and private character, and his services for many years in the cause of civil and religious liberty, proved that he was a fit person to represent the county in Parliament. Dr. ANDREWS said, he approved of Mr. Denison's Parlia mentary conduct, except his vote in &vim of Catholic Emanci pation. Mr. Ror•rr said, Mr. Denison had nothing to fear from the opposition, and he believed there was not a man in the room who would not walk bare-foot to the poll if he could turn out Sumner. A series of Resolutions were then read and adopted, approving of Mr. Denison's conduct, and declaring the determination of the Meeting to return him to Parliament as one of the Representa tiveti for the County of Surrey. Letters were yesterday received from the Mauritius, dated the Ist March. The' only intelligence they convey is the account of the hurricane experienced at the latter end of February, hiving extended itself to that quarter, although fortunately with out doing any material damage. At the date of these accounts the weather was settled. EXPLOSION OF A STEAM BOAT.--(From a New York Paper)-On the 3d of May, the boiler of the steam boat Susquehanna and Baltimore, while on a voyage up the Susquehanna, exploded, and the consequence was the destruction of a number of lives. The accounts published in the Philadel phia and Baltimore Papers, are somewhat different, and not knowing which is the most ac curate, we shall publish the sub stance o f both. The Baltimore American. says—" It appears that the boat had proceeded in safety to Northumberland, and was pursuing her course up the north branch of the- Susquehanna._ Upon arriving at Berwick Falls, a short distance below. the town of the same name, the passengers (including M essrs. Thomas Ellicott, John B. Morris, and Joseph W. Patterson, of Balti more, farming her run u p the Falls—she entered the Falls , and not being able to the board of river comm issioners) landed, to see stem the current, Captain Cornwall was dropping i T n h ju e r D ed e bz oc th ra e t b i o c il lu itil water, at tempt it at another place, when, as she was drifting down, she back, to touched a rock, and the boiler loded.

One other person, whose name we have noi learned, is supposed to be too shockingly scalded to recover. Nine other Persona were severely scalded, and three missing su ppose/1 to have been killed. This frightful accident took place on Wednes day lest, between 4 andb o'clock in the afternoon. ImmedistelY after the explosion the boat took fire, but it was soon extinguished. LONDON—Tman DAy, Mosv.ty. - The five Candidates appeared on the Hustings at nine o'clock, and severally acknowledged the support of the Livery u the votes were registered for them. At the dose of this day's poll, the numbers stood thus Mr. Alderman Thompson 2087 Wm. Ifferd, Esq. Mr. Alderman \Vaithman 1711 The Loaf Mayor 4 Mr. Alderman Wood 1654 Mr. Alderman TitostrsoN..then came forward and said, that he felt it leis duty to thank the Livery for the very distinguished and unprecedented eaccess he had met with, and to solicit a conti nuance of their support. If they did him the honour to elect him as one of their Representatives, it would he the unceasing study of his life to retain the inestimable satisfaction of being honoured with their confidence and good opinion. Mr. Alderman WAITIOIAN next came forward, and was re ceived with loud cheers. He said that when last he had the honour of addressing them, he particularly requested that they would not relax in their exertions, as be stood upon public opi nion alone, and that the result of the contest depended entirely upon themselves. The exertions they had made that day in his behalf demanded his warmest thanks, and was one great effort en the part of himself and friends towards establishing the Purity of Election. He hoped to see the time arrive when Electors would flock to the poll without being solicited to give their votes, and when the people generally would follow the noble example set them by the inhabitants of Westminster, and re turn their Representatives free of expellee. By the prin ciples of our Constitution it was declared, that the expense of an election should he defrayed by the electors, but in latter times the expenses of the candidates were paid by the Ministers. When an individual came forward to represent them in Parliament at an immense sacrifice of property, and great inconvenience to himself, it was hardly to be expected that they would prefer the interest of the public to their,own. They had not arrived at a proper state of feeling to conduct their elec tions on a free system, yet he hoped the efforts that had been made would tend to improve it, and that the Reformers would do what had been so often recommended to them, viz. reform themselves. As to the result of the election he depended upon the interest of public opinion only. He hoped his friends would not reserve their votes, as his defeat at the last election was in consequence of 300 of them having kept back until the last day, and then they were not able to vote at all. 1648 1468 Mr, Alderman WOOD acid, he felt highly gratified by the poll. He had not canvassed one single Liveryinan;esident in the coun try, but they had nevertheless, come forward in his behalf, because they knew that he all along acted from principle. During his parliamentary life he had always voted against an in crease of the taxation of the country, and for every measure tend ing to promote the general liberties of the subject. Mr. We an then came forward, but the noise was so great. that he could not obtain a hearing. He said he bad again to thank them for their support. His cause was going oa slow and sure.— (Loud uproat..)They had done him the honour to listen to him on Friday and Saturday, and he supposed that day that, by way of variety, they preferred that he should listen to them. The Loan MAYoa said, that although he could not address them with the exultation of those who had preceded him, yet he did.ao with equal respect and gratitude, and with as touch confi dence as to the result of the contest, which, however, he left en tirely in their hands. SOUTHWARK.-(Ftrim DAr.) At the close of the poll yesterday the number• were as follow : Mr. Calvert - • - 1736 Sir R. Wilson - - 1640 Mr. Polhill - - 19,61 Owing to the gross incivility of some of the poll-clerks, and the disinclination on the part of those who ought to regulate their conduct to Interfere, we were placed in a situation in which it was impossible for us to take a note of what was passing.— Our notice of the proceedings must, therefore, necessarily be very brief. Mr. Cat.vmer observed, that the state of that day's poll proved that Mr. Polhill's cause was hopeless. That gentleman had boasted on Saturday that he would bring hundreds of voters to the poll this day ; but what was the majority obtained on the day's polling by the great tobacconist?—(Loud expressions of dis approbation.) Mr. Poutu.L.—A tobacconist is as good as a brewer at any time.—(Applause, and " well done, Polhill.") Mr. CALVERT begged to say, that he meant nothing offensive to Mr. Polhill by the expression which lie had made use of.— (Hissing.) He merely followed the example of that gentle man's supporters, who called him the " little brewer" when op posed to Mr. Barclay. What, however, was the majority which the third candidate had obtained on that day's poll ? It only amounted to two. Under such circumstances, be thought that Mr. Pelhill ought to retire from the contest. (Applause, and cries of." No.") In June, 1807, when he (Mr. Culvert) was, at the end of five days' poll, only 190 behind Mr. Thornton, he, by the advice of hie friends, gave up the contest as hopeless. On another occasion Mr. Barclay retired from the contest when be was in a minority of 300: but a minority of 400 did not seem to dishearten Mr. Polhill. (Cheers from Mr. Polhill's friends, and "is your money all gone ?" from the crowd.) The worthy gentleman concluded by expressing a hope that Mr. Polhill would no longer protract the contest. (Applause.) Sir R. WiLsoft complained of what he called the malicious obstinacy of Mr. Polhill, which that gentleman mistook for com mendable and honourable perseverance, in continuing to keep the poll open. Mr. Polhill wasabandoned by all the respectable part of the party which used to support Mr. Barrlay.—(" No, no.") The protraction of the contest was evidently not for the sake of principle, but directed against the purses of the opposing candi dates. By continuing the contest, Mr. Polhill did not conduct himself as an honourable adversary should. —(Applause and hiss ing.)—Henceforth he would identify him with all the malignity of his party, and all the culpability of its conduct.—(Applause land disapprobation.) The standard of independence had been placed in the hands of Mr. Calvert and himself, and the electors might be sure that it would never be tarnished whilst in their possession.—(Applause.)—He insisted that Mr. Polhill, by his conduct, deserved every sarcasm that could be heaped upon him ; and the limit could justly be, not. what Mc. Polhill de served, but what became him (Sir Robert Wilson) to inflict. Mr. Polhill, like the Vicar of Bray, praised the present Adminis tration as the best of all popsible Administrations. -Ile (Sir Robert Wilson) had supported them on several occasions when he really thought they were right; and they must re member, that he had told them, that if some of them had been there, he would have reamnneuded to give them three cheers for certain of their acts. But what part of the Ad ministration could Mr. Polhill join? Would be Join the Ad ministration in their union or in their division? in their coin ponetit or opponent con diti o n? He would be like Issacharla ass between two trusses of hay, or he compelled to sing with Made*, " H o * happy Could I he with either, Were ; ......

Polhill had said, that his father had been tried i n parliament although he himself had not—(Laughter.)—suppme, then, that Mr. Polhill took his seat in the ' House, and said, that h av ing no services of his own to plead, be requested to be ac cepted tut the grounds of the merits 04.126 fa ther , whose steps h e mea nt to follow (a person here remarked, that the father was a W hi g ). , If be, Mr. Pollhill, Went to the. anti-reformers, he would beitold that his father wa a reformer, and that, therefore, es he pritposed to tread in his father's steps, they would have n othing to do with him. If he weut to the Bench of Bishops, they would reject him, and the Lord Chancellor would have nothing to do with him because his father had been an Unitarian Dissenter. Indeed Mr. Polhill's father, if he could speak from the grave, would say, " Give your votes for Sir Robert who is the friend of religious sects of all denominations. (Cheers, and laughter.) Mr. Potattu, then came forward amidst great noise and uproar, and stated, that while his friends continued to come for ward in his defence, the poll would be kept open. He had for gotten the questions to which Mr. Calvert bad desired an an swer, and begged of that Gentleman to repeat them (Mr. Calvert, however, declined). Whatever might be said about Pope, Popery, Bishop, or Cap and Bells, he - was resolved not to desert his colours. As to the name of Fox, he had only alluded to a coalition which had taken place between parties, one of whom had said that he would be afraid to trust himself in the same room with the other. It had been said on Saturday by his opponents, that there were then no more than 400 voters to poll; whereas, on that very day. (Monday) about 400 had polled.— (Cries of " No, no--nothing like it !")«--At all events, if he might trust the promises that had been given him, he would poll. 360 in two days. It was true he had spoken of six days as likely to afford a criterion by'which he might come to something like an accurate estimate of chance of success. "In six days shalt thou do all thy Work." But then he found that his num bers were increasing in a greater proportion than those of his opponents, and he never would ( rashly abandon a good cause. He repeated, that he would keep - the poll open to the last, and re-. quested his friends to attend in as great numbers as possible on the following day. The further proceedings were postponed of course till the follow ing morning (this day) at nine o'clock. LIVERPOOL. The following speech was delivered by the Right Hon. William Huskisson, in the Exchange News-room, on his arrival iu Liver pool, on Saturday last : " GENTLEMZN ANDBROTHER FREEMEN—Fur this warm and most cordial reception, which I can only look on as an additional proof of that generous kindness which I have always experienced at your hands, allow me to return you my grateful and sincere thanks. My endeavour, as one of your late Representatives, has always been to consult the interests, and to promote the prosperity, of this great community. If I have been guilty of error (and I under stand there are some among the Freemen of this town who think I have erred), for those errors I must intreat your indulgence. But, until I explain the principles on which I have been guided in the measures to which those individuals object, 1 trust, that from the British feeling which actuates the Freemen of Liverpool —a feeling of justice to a party unheard---I shall receive credit for having - endeavoured to do any duty. If those who are under misconception - respecting the measures which I have advocated, and which they deem prejudicial to their interests, will come to the hustings on Monday morn ing, to hear my explanation of the views by which I have been actuated, they will, I trust, no longer entertain that jealousy, or labour i uwier that misapprehension in respect to my conduct, which, oaf the occasion in question, I am sorry to understand, are now entertained in some quarters. 'ln tendering to you, Gentle men, the renewal of my services I should be sorry, whether I continue your representative, or that your confidence he transfer red to some other Candidate, to remain under any misconception; and I therefore do claim (and it is the only favour I now ask), an opportunity of explaining what my conduct hue been, and of show , ing to those who object to it, . that I have endeavoured to be their friend, and if they will heir me, I do not despair of proving to them that lamso in fact. Gentlemen, fatigued as I am, after so long a journey, so rapidly performed, I trust you will excuse me from saying more than that once more I beg of you to accept any belt acknowledgments for the flattering reception which I have lilt with from $4311 dll on any arrival at Liverpool." RENDING. Yesterday the election commenced fur two burgesses to serve in the conning Parliament for the borough of Reading. A strong opposition being announced, the usual display of the banners and colours of the respective candidates was made so early as five o'clock in the morning ; before six o'clock the vicinity of the committee-roomy was crowded ; and at half-past seven o'clock the Town-hall was in part occupied by the principal friends of the parties, and the remainder was filled shortly after by a tre mendous rush of the townspeople, many of them both then, and at intervals throughout the day, deafening the ears of those on the hustings with their conflicting clamours. The candidates are the old members, Mr. Monck and Mr. C. Fyshe Palmer; and their rivals Mr. George Spence, the barrister, and Mr. Edward Wake field, the author of several statistical works. The usual licence of familiarity with the respective candidates was claimed and exer cised by the crowd in the area of the hall, when they made their appearance with the Mayor on the principal seat of the hustings. Mr. Monck was assailed with a cry of " No Monk," &Tun upon his name, in 'consequence of his vote on the Catholic question. Mr. Fyshe Palmer was in the same vein of humour culled " a fish in troubled water." Mr. Wakefield, in allusion to the recent transaction in which his son was engaged, was met with cries of " No girl-stealers." " No child stealing, Neddy," " Who stole his wife ?" &c. and Mr. Spence was simply called " Old ►pence," although a gentleman just entering the prime of life. The respec tive parties among the crowd were not tired by the repetition of these jokes for a considerable time. The Alarm% said, that in conformity with his duty as Chief Magistrate, he now called upon them to put iu nomination two fit and proper representatives for that borough in the ensuing Per i liament. The gentlemen who came forward for such purpose of nomination, and the candidates themselves, would have an tin doubted right to he heard in the due order of their presentation., and it was of the essence of justice, as well as of mutual conve nience, that all these gentlemen should be heard by the electors at large with the utmost patience and impartiality.--(Applause.)— lie asked, as a fellow-townsman, for this practice of their justice and candour ; as a magistrate, he demanded it of them, and would assuredly enforce this claim without favour or partiality towards any particular party.—(Cheers.) Capt. HALL, R.N. then rose to propose Mr. C. Fyshe Palmer, as one of the representatives for the borough in the next Parlia ment, and pronounced a warm eulogimn upon the publie and pri rate character of that Gentleman. Mr. Wet. CHAMPION, sen. seconded the nomination. Mr. C, Fvetts PALMER then addressed the electors, and was received With the applause of his friends, and the occasional dis approbation of his opponents. Dr. SALMON came forware to propose Mr. Monck, and said j , that there were two obvious questions which presented themselves on such an occasion as the present. The first was, what were the qualifications necessary for their representatives; and secondly, in any and what degree the gentlemen had them who were condi- j dates for that distinction ? With respect to the first, they had to j consider whether they would adhere to those who had given them tried prods of their consistency and public principle, or whether they would venture to embark their cause with any person or' persons, who wavered with every popular breath, who were con sistent only in their inconsistency, and who made professions mat ters of barter and marketable commodities—whose conduct In/ either new and unknown, or else known only to be involved in mys tery. Tie concluded by eulogizing the public and private virtues of Mr. Monck. Mr. It MAttsit came forward to second this motion, and was immediately *wiled with the conflicting opposition of the crowd in the hall. The conflict was vociferous, cud variously main tainedparties; but, notwithstanding the most Mayor to maintain order and impartiality, the silence of either of the parties was only partial for the remainder. of the day. Mr. Marsh asked the electors, setluo b u y s and e rreerat'etdivselforts of the May whether• es friends of social order they were not getting bad boys, in being thus so boisterous, and complimented the -Mayor upon his exertions, which showed that whatever were u h l i d ni s s r e u lf k , e an a d n ‘ o v i l se ten in tl i te li v s his private political opinions, he would maintain the dignity of his station as a Magistrate, and the candour of his character as a min.--(Great applause, . and renewed interruption.)

Why had the present cry been raised against their old and tried representatives ? Merely because they had shown them selves the friends of freedom, and the enemies of monopoly. There was the rub ; little did he think he should again- see the day when the electors of Reading would he dragged at the tail of a brewer's dray, end the 'friends of a free retail trade in beer re. proached and calumniated for wishing that John Bull, like Boni face, should drink his ale, ay, and -. sleep on it. This was the crime, this was the cause of the hostility. In fact, it resembled the senseless clamour among the ancients against Aristides. " What has Aristides done to you," said his advocate, " that you demand his banishment?"—" Why," said the proscriber, " I am tired of hearing every one calling him Aristides the just."—(Applausi.)—So - it was here; the monopolists and bigots were tired, it would seem, of having representatives whose worth was acknowledged by all good men, and they (or some of them) vociferated for a change.—(Considerable interruption, and a cry of " What good have they done the town of Reading?)—He would meet that question. Of Mr. Monek he could speak lotig before his connexion with their town; he knew him before he had succeeded to the possession of wealth, and when, with tobite rate menus, he was the silent and generotts contributor to everY generous and humane institution among them. He, indeed, did not chronicle his bounty—he bad published no accottnt of the distribution of his coals and soup.—(Alluding to the delivetY of, these articles by Mr. Wakefield last winter.)—Mr. Monek scorner' so to proclaim his acts—he remembered the lines of the poet— " Who builds a church to God and not to fame, " Will never mark the marble with his name." If half the trouble were taken to disseminate truth that there had been to circulate falsehood, the enemies of Mr. Monck would have found to their mortification that they were vainly traducing a man, who Did good by stealth, and blushed to find it fatne.li-0-(Applanse.) lut really it was tiresotue to dwell upon such a topic—it Wag ireadhare and vexatious—it was like ascending Vesuvius at thR _ _ riqk of falling down into the ashes. With tespect to the Catholic question, in what a situation must parties in this country be, if they were to split upon this single, point, when they ligteed upon all the other great leading points of public policy. Why Mt imitate the conduct of the n►uiisters, who agreed tti diffcr on thli question, and yet to retain their places?—(A laugh.)--Whet *at to become of the Reform in Parliament, what of the Corn Laii"?; if the men who were ready to do the good work were not to be supported, beanie of their mode of thinking on the subject of Catholic Emancipation ? It was really trifling with common sense. Amongst reflecting men there was really no vital difference' of opinion at this moment, except as to the mode of accomplishing their object, for they were agreed in their principles. It was ridi culous, then, fur well-meaning men to split upon one subject, and leave the rest undone in consequence. There was, however, another set of men who raised objections, and set up the yell of " No Popery," and who reminded him of the lines of the poet— " I think the Pope is on his back, " But though 'tie fun to strike him, " I think the devil's not so black " As many help to rtiake hint." Thesi good folks affected to overlook a reasonable ground of alarm, and then to contend with hhadotm They exclaimed, " Fly front the Pope and. the Devil, and stay with no, God, ski the King."--(Loud laughter.)--•Ile entreated them not to permif ; this question to be made a ,stumbling block in favour of the enemy, ' whose great anchor and hope it was. Their opponents no doubt chuckled at the idea that all went on.smooth till they could charge them with trying an intrigue with the scarlet lady of Babylon.— (A. laugh.)—" Now," said they, " that we have got them stuck upon the beast with all the horns, let us send in upon them two of our blue • devils (alluding to the colours of the opposite party) to complete their confusion." Aud who were the persons who attempted to effect this purpose, and what their pretensions ? in a country like this, consisting of three branches, there was a na-: tiunal and justifiable prejudice in favour of men of wealth and sta tion, to take the lead in popular representation. God forbid, ! however, that in this country, where station and honours were open to the acquisition of humble men of high desert, that the want of aristocratical birth should he deemed fatal to the NC pretensions of any honest man of talents. if the gentleman neat' hint (111 r. Wakefield) had not the intrinsic qualifications of birth :tut station to entitle lihn to be their representative, upon what else were his pretensions founded ? He bad no desire to inquire with any invi. dious personality into Mr. Wakefield's claims upon . them, any more than he would have to dwell upon those domestic fracas which sometimes occurred between man and wife, in which hard words were at a short distance followed by soft kisses, and all was well again. (A laugh.) Mr. Wakefield was only known to them for about a year and a quarter---he would ask any nun c f sense and judgment, of whatever party, if his conduct had, dining that period, been such as to characterize the manners of a person of nice honour and delicacy of feeling.—(Mingled cries of Yes" and " No.") There was always among gentlemen when they dif fered upon public grounds, a courtesy shown to each other, which marked the superior character of that station. How had Mr. !Muck. been lately treated in his absence from Reading while engaged in the arduous and zealous discharge of his Par liamentary duties ? Had not attempts been made to under 'nine bins in the meanest wey ? He was quite at a loss to describe such conduct in its proper colours ; but how to found upon it any claim for support was truly ridiculous. lie bed not words to describe such a claim by a. new candidate for the suffrages of the electors of Reading. For the latter to accept it would only resemble the connexion of those ill-assorted matches, which the young god of love sometimes made to the great disquietude and dismay of grave families, and could only be illustrated by, Swift's heroine's practice of marrying a gentleman in the morning, and running away with the footman on the same night. The readers of Swift would recollect that she left a letter on her father's table, stating-- " That love ne'er thought of rich and poor, " She'd beg with Ned from door to door."--(Loud laughter.) lle repeated, that to talk of the new gentleman's claim was quits ridiculous—were he (Mr. Marsh) a professor of poetry, who had newly bridled his Pegasus, to canter up the bill of Parnassus, he could not in his utmost fancy imagine such a claim ; they might tin, indeed, as Nell had done in St. Giles, when gut consigned her honour and a 51. note to the care of the log's-meat-man, and ex ultingly exclaimed, in the words of the old ditty— " You may say what e'er you will, " Yet I'll do all I can " To make myself agreeable " To the dog's-meat man." (Laughter, and renewed tumult.)—What, then, really were Mr. Wakefield's local pretensions, and what - his politics? He we. only known as a person who had written a clever statistical book on the elate of Ireland. In that book he was the liberal and en lightened friend of Catholic Emancipation.--(Here Mr. Marsh road a strong extract to that effect from Mr. Wakefield's book, in which he complained of Mr. Pitt's acceptance of office without making conditions for the settlement of the Catholic question.— Renewed uproar.)—Oh, that mine enemy would write a book! An ancient bad expressed a wish that he could have a window in his bosom for all men to see his-heart. Mr. Wakefield was not glazed, or else be (Mr. Marsh) thought he should be able to dis cern an expression of scorn and contempt ; for the mean instru ments, who, notwithstanding the recorded avowal of his senti ments, were weak enough to become the elements of his eleva tion, and the dupes of his equivocal professions.
